    This game...

    Part of me wants to say that some people should get out and learn how to actually socialize and part me of me wants to say that these same people should simply not socialize with anyone at all.

    I had a bit of an encounter while working on some ARR relics.

    I ran into this person while farming a fate for one of my books. Didn't talk to them, or say anything. Noticed they didn't have a relic but whatever. They can do whatever they want it's not really any of my business. I run around killing the enemies I need for my book and they don't catch up with me until I'm looking for the stuff in the U'Ghamaro Mines because of course they do. They mostly just sit there, doing nothing and following me around. I eventually move to a different world because I'm using discord to track the fates I need. They show up as I'm finishing up. Whenever I'd go into my dungeons, they'd be right there when I left the instance.

    And it's like this for a good hour. I don't say anything because I really don't see that accomplishing anything.

    I eventually DC travel home because I left my inks and alexandrites with one of my retainers. It's a good while before finally I get this in my tells:


    I didn't say anything back but... really? Bruh I never accused you of stalking and you're defending yourself. Pretty sure you know what you're doing. You even said you're sorry.

    Anyways I'm logged out now cause I need a break after grinding half a relic in a couple of hours. Guess I'll DC travel again later and end up playing hide and seek since I'm pretty sure there's not enough there for a GM to care(even though I got a tell that's basically incriminating).

    Ya, most ppl stop at "Hey your glam is really pretty". I'm cool with that, take a screenshot and do whatever weirdo. What you describe is....creepy, and probably reportable if it makes you feel uncomfortable enough.

    It definitely makes me uncomfortable but I feel like I'd be wasting my time if I bothered reporting it right now. I had an ex FC member harassing me at one point and nothing was done until it really escalated.

    I'd start replying with "disability is no excuse to be an asshole" if they continue.

    Because it isn't. You are not an object for someone else's ADHD hyperfixation.

    I'd say still report. Maybe it won't do anything. Maybe it will but still worth it. Creeps like that shouldn't be on the game.

    Love that the tell boils down to "I'm not a stalker I'm just stalking."

    As I come back to this, having thought about it I agree with the others, report. If nothing else it creates a record of the incident. Behavior like this tends to escalate if gone unchecked, your report may assist someone else in the future.

    Someone once offered to paypal me money to marry me! It was a very uncomfortable situation! I don't play on my main character anymore. I feel very uncomfortable with people following me around! I'm not a courtesan! >.>
